Major innovative break through: The new NSMT Loudspeakers reference speaker


In the next two weeks my Stereo Times review on the new NSMT Loudspeakers reference System Two will be posted. I wanted to give a heads-up to the GON members because I consider the System Two, which is composed of the Clairvoyant Monitor and SUB-DUO active band-pass subwoofer platforms to be a revolutionary break through both in performance and retail price $15,985. For example I compare the NSMT System Two to a great speaker, the Stenheim Alumine Five SE Dynamic Loudspeaker, and found the NSMT System Two to be superior in it's performance. Punch line- The Stenheim Alumine retails for $72,000! For all the details of why I came to the above conclusions take a look at the review when it is posted.

Teajay reviews are spot on, When I visited and listen to the ps 12 Tekton in his system , the review match what I heard. As a reviewer I trust Him.My friend benefited from the product He reviews. Only those gear we can afford.

@teajay  - Terry, did you listen to the Stenheim's in your system or another?  I haven't heard the Stenheim or the NSMT so I am just curious if there were other components involved which may or may not have impacted your opinion.

Hey Facten,

I did not hear the Stenheim speakers in my system. I was very familiar with all the upstream equipment. Great speaker, I mention it my NSMT System Two review for two reasons. First, they have overall similar sound signatures. However, the NSMT has a better bass foundation because of the active band pass subwoofers. Secondly, the amazing price difference of $55,000, in favor of the NSMT System Two, which costs $15,945.00!

1) With your statement that I put "sound above craftmanship" because I written very positive reviews historically about  Tekton Design speakers, own a pair of Ulberth speakers, shows your negative bias that many have towards this brand.

Obviously we don't know each other and in this world of exchanging viewpoints in the faceless meta-verse, assumptions are made about each other. Of course I am biased. We are all biased. But my bias is not against Tekton per se, but only against companies who put out cheaply made products. My BIAS is that a cheaply made product is no bargain at any price. 

You may or may not be aware of the many threads on multiple fora regarding the build quality and misleading published specs of the Carver Crimson tube amp. It "featured" a total piece of junk transformer. It was poorly designed so as to present a significant shock hazard. 

Quality is quality. We know it when we see it, feel it, use it. Just one example of quality is Luxman. I only have one Luxman product so I don't  think my opinion is rooted in ownership-bias. It is their head amp, the 750u. It is not even in my system at the moment (an equally quality product, an Ampandsound Nautilus head amp is in its place). 

You seem to be an intelligent fellow so I don't need to belabor the no-name digital watch vs. Swiss handmade analogue watch analogy. The former may keep better time but it is disposable junk. The latter can be easily corrected for accurate time and can be passed on for generations. 

And by the way, why do you repeatedly misspell the name of your own beloved Tekton, the "Ulfberht"? Are you sure you have a pair?
